deoxys forms

Since Deoxys-D is the only Deoxys Forme allowed under Smogon OU rules, I'd say go with that if you want to use Deoxys competitively.

If deoxys is in-game or competitive, while leveling up(if not at 100)switch between the forms and get the different moves from the formes, move tutors, move relearner, whatever. Example:deoxys-D with extremespeed, a move from the deoxys-S moveset. For competitive, do the above and end in defense form, maxing out whatever stat. If just for in-game stuff, same thing, just any forme you want.

Attack is probably the most effective forme, but just go with your favourite playstyle.

(Just don't pick Normal its boring.)

Depends on what you want to use it for really. In Pearl I had mine in Defense forme. Really useful when trying to level up weaker Pokemon, since he can take a lot of hits from the opponent when switching in. Saves having to keep running back to the Pokemon Center or spending a fortune on potions. Think I might have used Attack forme when taking on the Elite 4 once, but in general its a little bit frail for trekking around the region and leveling up stuff.

i like to use the speed forme,but the attack forme is better to take out most of the post-game gym leaders/elite 4,and the defence forme is good to train weaker pokemons too.

I would definitely go for Deoxys D. Just make sure you have the moves to match.

Well, I would go for the form which tackles* it's lowest stat...

If I had a Deoxys...

* Not the move -w-'

I usually use a Deoxys-A, since Superpower and Psychoboost can tear apart most in-game opponent pokemon with its stats, just have to switch it out every couple battles. Haven't brought it to Black 2 yet, but it definitely owned in Pokemon Soulsilver and Battle Revolution.

It's dependent entirely on what you're using it for, what the rest of the team is, its Nature and IVs are, etc.
